Was the Justice League any good?

 

There's major traction that Zack Snyder's cut of the film will be coming to HBO Max, rumor is a deal is imminent.

 

It is okay, probably similar in quality to Batman v Superman. I don't think it's anywhere near as good as Wonder Woman or Shazam. You kinda have to have lower expectations going in to a DCEU movie.

The craziest thing about him is that he has had the President of the United States on his show and the President listens to his advice. Crazy world in which we live.

 

If he really does listen to him, that's crazy indeed.

 

There are lots of lunies on the Internet, but Alex Jones is really obvious. You can figure it out in 12 seconds   At least, he's funny-song-material.

 

The more worrying lunies are those who use subtler gibberish. Anita Sarkeesian is a really good example. She also promotes deleterious conspiracy theories, but she's more ingenious. BTW, every company that listened to her headed for a fall.

Also, if every side of the political spectrum denounced the lunies on their sides, things would be easier, I guess

Okay, thanks. I've heard good things about Shazam, I saw Wonder Woman and thought it was okay. Aqua Man was pretty good story wise, but was flat out bad CGI wise.

 

I heard the ultimate edition of Batman vs Superman was way better than the original version. The original version of that movie is terrible.

He was rational at one point that just became a caricature of himself which he has been for years now. It's like wrestlers where they become the character in real life.

She's just lucky she's on the "right" side according to the media or otherwise she would've been crushed long ago.

The Covid made them realize that streaming is the future

 

Probably so............. YouTube in it's infancy was a place to post crazy cat videos.

I am rarely optimistic about a DCEU movie coming out. The last time I was Suicide Squad disappointed me.

If DC could ever get their shit together movie wise they'd crush Marvel in my opinion.

I never thought about it before the MCU, but Marvel having that central person to keep things together and consistent was really important. Also, they picked the right tone which really worked for them. They could have easily watched the success of Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight movies and went that way.

 

DC tried to make their DCEU like the MCU but they have now revealed they are not going to try to make sure the movies relate to each other anymore.

Yeah that was central to their success. Hopefully they don't go the Woke route.

Until they change their minds again.

Yeah he'll be disappointed if I tell him I don't like the show.

I'm on episode 2 right now........ still getting ins and outs of the show.

 

It usually takes a few episodes for that to happen.
